Hello all.
I worked through this as figured I would share on how to get PKI with CAC working on SOLUS.
Most of the other blogs seem out of date and has steps that are no longer required.
1) CAC reader driver:
a. install CCID in the software center for the typical SCR3310. Yours might require the ACCID.
2) Smart card interface:
a. From Software Center install pcsc-lite and pcsc tools
b. To start the daemon open terminal and run: sudo systemctl enable pcscd
c. Leave terminal open to test card and reader (which means at this point, make sure they are plugged in)by typing in : pcsc_scan
d. if you get a good read, move on.
e. If you didn't get a good read CTRL+c to stop pcsc_scan, try restarting the pcsc daemon
by typing: sudo systemctl restart pcscd
3) Security device for firefox
a. Go to software center again and install OpenSC.
4) Test firefox.
That's it. Figured I would share. no need to install root certificates or anything like that. Ive done this twice now on fresh installs on 4.2 so i'm pretty confident it works.
